Some start-up error messages grab mouse / hide mouse cursor

This is rather difficult to explain in words, but I'll try.

While experiencing the error reported in this thread, I Alt-TABbed to another process to write down some notes in order to report the error.

1) The error msg dlg remained on top of everything (not surprising, usually can be managed)

2) No mouse cursor appeared (it was hidden in the RW launch screen), making quite hard to use any other application or even dragging the error dlg out of the way

3) It was not possible to Alt-Tab back to the error dlg to acknowledge it, shut RW down and go on. In fact, I ended up turning the machine off with Ctrl-Alt-Del (luckily the keyboard was not grabbed).

Possibly it is not super-important, but being forced to turn off a machine to recover from an error msg is not very user-firendly...

Thanks for the reply and for the suggestions.

I forgot to mention the important points that I was not in full mode, resolution same width and slightly small height than the monitor (to keep the task bar insight), undecorated, exactly as you suggested.

It is hard to call and manage the process monitor (I'm running Linux) without a mouse cursor but, I agree, there would have been ways to progressively close the other running apps and perhaps remain with the RW error dlg only; still there seemed to be no way to call it back in focus to acknowledge and dismiss it with [Enter].

If you know of an easy way to create an error which forces the same dlg to appear during app start-up, I can try again and do some specific test (right now, everything seems to work correctly, of course. Where are bugs and errors when one needs them?)
